NEW YORK, May The new week on the

clining market, which presented very few
features of interest. The fact that to-day Is

hopeful views of the situation which were 30
prevalent toward the end of last week, were
wanting to-day, the bears having everything

no notice while the former seemed TO MD the
prevailing weakness. The market opened
figures Of from u to X per cent The trading
was quiet and soon became dull, though the
pressure in New England made that stock
quite active for the first hour. The market
was weak throughout, although slight rally
occurred toward II o'clock, and the strength
displayed by Fort Worth and Denver kept the
market firm until noon. After that time there
was more animation and renewed weakness,

ex rel. case against Wm. Forsythe, sur
veyor Of this District, awarding writ Of
mandamus to compel the record of plat
of subdivision. The court held that, as
under the law of 1909 Or. s., d. e., sections
472 4s7), the recording by the surveyor of
subdivision Of square or lot is minis.
terial act, not involving any discretion,
provided the subdivision correctly gives the
quantities and boundaries OF the square
and sublots, and that, accordingly, IL the
surveyor declines to record subdivision
which conforms to the requirements of the
law he may be compelled by mandamus to
do so.
